lol agreed. Watching on my phone because paw patrol has precedence on the TV- doesn’t help either

Munster have been superb in this second half and have strangled the life out of Toulon.

Coombes, Hodnett, Scannell and especially Nankivell all superb.

Eoinbmw · 13-01-2024 04:48PM

That was silly

standardg60 · 13-01-2024 04:48PM

Stupid from Coombes, just recycle it

leakyboots · 13-01-2024 04:49PM

Tight call, looked like his arm was being held but Coombes probably should have recycled

Eoinbmw · 13-01-2024 04:59PM

Munster have turned it around tonight such an improvement!

letowski · 13-01-2024 04:59PM

Outstanding 76 minute effort by Scannell on his first game this year.

Ben Bailey · 13-01-2024 05:00PM

Kendellen's 2nd penalty conceded. He's not at it yet, maybe a bit over eager off the bench.

pappyodaniel · 13-01-2024 05:00PM

Caseys box kicking is very underrated. He had an excellent game.

leakyboots · 13-01-2024 05:03PM

This is one of our best wins on the road. Have been in that stadium and seen us lose, it's not an easy place to go.

Nanks, Nash, Scannell, Crowley, Coombes, Beirne, Casey, Hodnett, Zebo.... all had massive games

Atmosphere for the Northampton game will be something else, needing a BP at home against an English team in the final game!

Eoinbmw · 13-01-2024 05:04PM

That's a huge result

mrpdap · 13-01-2024 05:04PM

Mighty performance

well done Munster

Mantis Toboggan · 13-01-2024 05:04PM

Super win

YTM · 13-01-2024 05:08PM

Hopefully we've a clean bill of health come Monday morning with a couple more returning for what will be a massive game next week. Especially at home against a team guaranteed a home draw in the next round.

markest · 13-01-2024 05:10PM

Well played, looking forward to next Saturday now. See you in Thomond. COYS :)

pickarooney · 13-01-2024 05:18PM

Cracking game. Toulon looked much stronger at the start but an incredible number of lost/stolen balls in contact and a calamitous lineout have them nothing to play with. Munster immense from 15 mins on and with a really enjoyable playing style . Hodnett and Nankivell immense throughout. Nash had a great game.

Yes, great game. That said, I wouldn't be delighted if I was a RCT supporter. Crowley stepped up after his pook kick, which is really encouraging. Nash looked really good, and very timely too.

Boscoirl · 13-01-2024 05:38PM

Didn’t see the whole game. And what I did see was on a phone. But hodnett was immense for me.

would love to see his tackle count.

phog · 13-01-2024 06:29PM

Huge, huge win for us, a BP win away from home against Toulon. 🔥❤️

We defended well in the opening quarter, obviously, the kicking ball back at them was part of the game plan. Crowley getting a lot of stick for his kick, the defenders were a much bigger issue.

How good is Zebo 🔥, just excellent, Nash too. Hodnett my motm. Scannell making a huge difference on his return and having POM on the field just adds so much to us both in attack and defence.

That knock on is a huge decision, I can see why they allowed it but if that happened against Munster you'd be annoyed.

Great to hear the travelling fans singing The Fields of Athenry. I'm jealous of those that made the trip.

phog · 13-01-2024 06:46PM

Knock on or no knock on, great try

50HX · 13-01-2024 07:31PM

Great result esp away from home, we seem to play better on the road ( look at last season)

Scannell was immense on his return, some shift to put in

Hodnett was my motm, crowley was ropey to start with but love the way he works his way into games when it's not goin well

Zak Flaps · 13-01-2024 07:39PM

Hi all. My mum recorded the game on TNT earlier. She just tried to watch the game but all it recorded was a message asking if she'd like to upgrade to TNT despite the fact that she already has it!!! 😡

Is there anywhere else she could could watch it now? Tried Catch Up on TNT on the sky box but it isn't there.

phog · 13-01-2024 07:52PM

It might become available on YouTube, check tomorrow or later in the week

oppiuy · 13-01-2024 08:08PM

Is a home tie in round sixteen possible if Exeter lose

Boscoirl · 13-01-2024 08:13PM

If we get a BP win and Exeter get nothing

Buddy Bubs · 13-01-2024 08:18PM

Is round of 16 a 2 leg aggregate match ?

YTM · 13-01-2024 08:48PM

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121612225#Comment_121612225

No it's just a one off match.

Saints are in the Top 2, Exeter can pass them out for 1st place and are playing Bayonne (in Bayonne) but all they need is a BP to stay ahead of us.

Hard to see us getting into the Top 2 spots.

phog · 13-01-2024 09:50PM

Iirc, @Cookiemunster was travelling over to this one. What a game to be at. Matches like today are ones that are never forgotten. Hope he and his crew have a great weekend.
